US - Korea Planning Visits: Cross-Layer Wireless Sensor Network Technologies

摘要提案编号：OISE-0905332主要研究者：Ravi Sankar机构： 南佛罗里达大学 美韩计划访问：跨层无线传感器网络技术拟议的规划访问将支持PI和两名来自南佛罗里达大学（USF）的研究生前往韩国群山国立大学，以建立一个强大的，长期的研究合作，将导致联合项目和建议，韩国研究基金会和美国国家科学基金会的全球研究计划。 NSF的资金将支持USF研究团队的两次访问。 KRF将资助韩国队。 目标是探索1）主办全球传感器网络国际研讨会的可能性，2）与USF当前的REU计划一起建立国际REU站点的可能性。 该项目的重点是开发一种通用的跨层无线传感器网络技术，这是一个具有广泛应用潜力的研究领域。 这项活动的潜力得到了韩国研究基金会的认可，该基金会为韩国合作伙伴提供了大量的研究支持和旅费。 随着韩国工业界提供传感器网络实验测试台，合作将得到加强。更广泛的影响该项目将扩大代表性不足的学生的教育和研究培训，这些学生目前参与了南加州大学工程学院REU内的佛罗里达州格鲁吉亚洛斯斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟计划。

AbstractProposal Number: OISE-0905332Principal Investigator: Ravi SankarInstitution: University of South FloridaTitle: US-Korea Planning Visits: Cross-layer wireless sensor network technologiesThe proposed planning visit will support the PI and two graduate students from the University of South Florida (USF) to travel to Kunsan National University in South Korea, for the purposes of establishing a strong, long standing research collaboration that will result in joint projects and proposals to the Korean Research Foundation and the US NSF for global research initiatives. NSF funds will support two visits by the USF research team. KRF will fund the Korean team. The goals are to explore 1) the potential for hosting an international workshop on global sensor networks and 2) the possibility of establishing an international REU site in conjunction with the current REU program at USF. Intellectual Merits The project focuses on developing a universal cross-layer wireless sensor network technology, a research area with expansive potential impact in applications. The potential of this activity has been recognized by the Korea Research Foundation which has provided significant research support as well as travel funding to the Korean partners. The collaboration will be strengthened with the availability of experimental test bed on sensor networks from Korean industry.Broader ImpactsThe project will broaden the education and research training of underrepresented students who are currently participants in the Florida Georgia Lous Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation program, within the USF College of Engineering REU.
